Couture Cookies

Ever been completely wowed by a cookie—even before you’ve taken a bite? Well, I just have to rave about the g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s hand-painted sugar cookies from The Whimsical Whisk, an Indianapolis-based patisserie helmed by pastry chef Clare Welage. They come in a wide variety of, yes, whimsical shapes (the vibrant floral-print purses, shoes and gowns are bridal-shower perfect!), and the detail in the 3-D designs (think sugar pearls and iridescent touches) make them almost too pretty to eat. But believe me, you’ll want to. These confections are made with real butter, cane sugar, flour and whole eggs (yet no trans fats)—so they taste as divine as they look. The cookies are available in vanilla, lemon cream, coconut or almond, and there’s a two-dozen minimum for orders; wedding designs start at $3.75 each.
